What is Survey Money Best Used for?

Survey Monkey lets you or your students easily create surveys that can be distributed electronically through email or social media.  The site then takes the data and performs basic statistical analysis on it. 

 The free account lets you create surveys containing up to ten questions. The question formats and layouts are customizable and there are there are many templates one can choose from. After the user develops and enters the survey questions, Survey Monkey will produce a weblink  and anyone who clicks on the link will be directed to your survey.  Users can log back into Survey Monkey later to see the answers that people gave. The software presents the data in a nice graphical layout.

Survey Monkey is a valuable tool for students, particularly those engaged in some form of market research, where they need to collect and interpret statistical primary and secondary data.  Online surveys give students a real-world connection to these abstract concepts and using Survey Monkey students can make their own online surveys.  As well, students can easily incorporate survey results from Survey Monkey into Word processor and spreadsheets.
